This is a series that I'm surprised hasn't been on TV by now. From what little I've seen and read of it, it looks like it's a pretty good series. At this point, it's one of those series that, to me, is one that I like and one that I can't form an opinion on at the same time since it's probably the only anime/manga that's based on football and I haven't watched enough of it to form an opinion on it (I've only seen the first 5 or so minutes of the first episode in a fansub). Right now, I'm undecided on whether I'll watch the episodes on the internet or not. If it's all I can get in the forseeable future, then, oh well, I'll probably find a way to get my fix in but if it's going to be on TV soon, then that will be awesome, too.

Eyeshield is an awesome sports anime that every one needs to watch. It's not quite Ippo-status in terms of sports anime but its very good. Deimon vs. Shinryujii is an epic battle. I just wish that they didn't cut the anime short when they did. The music for this show is pretty good too.

Hiruma Youichi is a genius ya-ha!! Twisted Evil


Don't you mean Yoichi Hiruma? Twisted Evil *runs from the mods*

Crunchyroll already streams all 145 episodes of Eyeshield 21 (Eng Sub), in fact I finished watching the series about a month or so ago. I guess this is an "official" announcement where Viz Media, the US Distributor, gave its blessing to Crunchyroll to stream the (prob crappy) English Dub series.

If the episode are there without permission then they will/would have to be removed in a few days anyway what with Crunchy going "legit".

It's from Wikipedia. Plus, they don't even have a source on the Wikipedia page.

Oh I know about the "authenticity" of Wiki. Smile I just wanted an excuse to use that famous meme from the series. Smile


Oh, okay. The reference was lost on me since I haven't watched the show.

So true braves, I hope its wrong. It was a decent series similar to The Prince of Tennis. I wouldn't mind owning the set but not if its edited. I'm sure ANN will have more info in the future.


With the way Viz is going, I seriously doubt that this series will ever get released. They let every series that isn't as big as Naruto or Death Note to either go out of print or just flat out not release it.
